I think a lot of the ones who supported AO are mainly the ones who gave up their season tickets. I don't care who I'm slagging off but I'd say the majority there today are the ones who said "get behind the team, man" and "it won't achieve anything" when attempts were made last season.

This. We could appoint Ancelotti tomorrow and I don't think there'd be much of an improvement because the squad is full of shite. I'm not finding excuses, but McClaren's 'success' at Derby was built largely around an attacking midfield who got forward, created chances and supported Chris Martin. It was the complete opposite of what he's working with here.

Absolute bobbins, this lad.

Red button on Sky lets you watch both games.

Part of the reason we concede boat loads of goals is the midfield in front of the back four. Off the ball they're weak in challenges and clueless about who they're supposed to be tracking. With the ball they're static, sloppy and have no idea as to how to find space and create chances. Nearly every game it's essentially as if we're playing with a shaky back four and two up top.

Best referee heckling you've heard...

Not a referee, but without doubt the best grief I've heard given to a player was when we beat Spurs 2-1 between Christmas and New Year in 02/03. My ST was in the Milburn paddock down near the Gallowgate, seven rows back. There was a bloke about three rows behind who was always p*ssed and used to sing various songs (just popular music, not chants or owt) and have loud conversations. Anyway, the subs used to warm up in front of us. Someone was down injured and Teddy Sheringham comes jogging down to stretch. The atmosphere had fallen flat and after about five attempts from the big bloke behind shouting 'Teddy!', Sheringham finally looks up to see who's calling him. The bloke just stands up, arms outstretched and goes, 'Feeeeelin' lonely, this Christmaaaaaaas..' much to tears of laughter from everyone around. Sheringham, face like thunder, jogs off back to the dugout. -
The ball into him wasn't the best, tbf.

Was at the Pirelli when they played QPR in the league cup last season. One bloke shouted, "Ref, you're supposed to favour the big teams - that's us tonight!" They've an odd way of hoying abuse down there. -
:lol: bloke was a liability.

Not worthy of a thread - UEFA Euro 2016 edition

I'm guessing the numbers of the pots relates directly to their position in the group? I've got tickets for E1 v E4. While it's good to have a seeded team, the opposition isn't exactly going to be great if so. -
Works brilliantly given what is now the most iconic picture of him.

If we drew each other the nuggets would head over to fight anyway, man. Whether they've got tickets/any interest in the game or not.

Love this 'little old Ireland' point. You've just said yourself you took four points off the current world champions in qualifying, so why not? That was men against boys. And yes, we failed to qualify and it was embarrassing.
